    duran had more title defenses than mosley, and mosley just held the ibf belt.. is that even a question?

    are you part of the SUGAR SHANE IS BACK bandwagon?

    well most would say Duran seeing as he's been retired for years and his career is in hindsight, and he overall had the better LW career accomplishment wise

    but Mosley was an absolute wrecking machine at LW, and i honestly think he was top 5 LWs of all time, maybe even 3

    but head 2 head i couldn't call it, Mosleys outbanged much bigger and harder hitting guys then Duran

    but Duran......well, we all know what Duran brings to the table, i've only see 2 prime Duran fights at LW, and i can honestly say he was as great as they come

    dont know the outcome, but i know it would be a war
